Default Hello from France

Hi there,

Vincent, 33 years, from France. I have an account here since a while now, but I did not took time to introduce myself. So that is now fixed

I previously owned a Civic Type-R EP3 sharpened for track abuses. I also owned '91 Prelude 2.0i16 4ws and '88 CRX ED9. I'm a big fan of Honda, and with more money, I would have certainly a sweet NSX in my garage ^^.

I have now a '00 Silverstone AP1 that I use mostly on the track and during spirited road drives. She is very lightly tuned for my needs. Here she was when I bought her 2 years ago, full stock with 45K miles.



She have changed a bit since, but there is nothing too big on it, only Ohlins R&T dampers, Rota Fighter rims with AD08R in 225/255, a Bride type-r driver seat and a carbon fiber intake and some minor stuff. I also took care of wheel alignement and ride height to match my needs on the track (and I really love her behavior now )



The next modification will be a front big brake kit (Brembo 4 pots calipers and 330*38 discs with separated alloy bells), because braking system is really not up to the task on tracked S2000. It performs not so bad, but fades too quickly and I'm tired to refurbish caliper or change pads/discs all the time.

I was on Magny Cours F1 track last week end, after a 8 months pause because clutch failure and other things, and it was a big joy to drive my S again. Here a quick video at the end of the afternoon.

Thank you for your welcoming
